Rifles Descriptions

7.62x51 - 147 Grain FMJ - Sellier & Bellot - 600 Rounds

A case of 7.62x51 ammunition doesn’t just spell bright days ahead at the rifle range. It is also an indispensable part of any sound preparation for an emergency. As 7.62x51, this ammunition is just as fit for NATO-spec weapons as it is American hunting rifles chambered for 308 Win. Each cartridge is armed with the basic full metal jacket bullet which any automatic or semi-automatic rifle is designed to efficiently feed and fire. At 147 grains this round’s bullet will deliver essentially the same in-flight ballistics as the U.S. Army’s time-tested M80 ball. And while the FMJ bullet may not be designed for terminal expansion, its velocity and energy are both sufficient to quickly subdue any human-sized threat to your safety. Sellier & Bellot’s 7.62x51 ammunition hails from the Czech Republic, where it is loaded with three important performance-enhancing components: non-corrosive Boxer primers to prevent rusting, new brass cases for clean ignition and reloadability, and steel-free bullets for compliance at ranges which prohibit magnetic projectiles. This ammo’s primers are also sealed for greater longevity during storage.

Bushmaster Gas Piston 90294

The Bushmaster Gas Piston System Rifles bring new levels of reliability to the “AR” type rifle platform by eliminating carbon build up, gas leaks and heat within the Upper Receiver. The Gas Piston System operates by tapping gas pressure off the barrel much like the systems found on AK-47s and FALs * Functions with a wider range of ammunition - less gas pressure - lower cyclic rate * Offers improved reliability and control - with cleaner operation and reduced recoil * Keeps carbon build up and powder residue from reaching - and fouling the Upper Receiver and Bolt Carrier * A Detented Plug in the Gas Block allows easy cleaning of the Systems’ Hard Chrome Plated Piston
